Side/window Air Bag problems of the 2005 Ford Mustang

Takata airbag (passenger side) can not get repaired told by dealership that we are not in the right zone for them to order replacement. This has been going on for several years. The driver side airbag was replaced.

Takata recall. I have been asking my local dealer when the driver side airbag will be replaced. I have been told the same quote for years, "when Ford finds a new supplier for the takata air-bag we will have one for you". My family cannot ride in my passenger front seat. If this is a mandatory recall, then why isn't Ford made to replace the part? why cannot Ford just use a new airbag in place of the old air-bag? I have been told by many mechanics that the front dashboard of recent year Mustangs take the same style of airbag. If another person is injured, it will be on the hands of NHTSA for not forcing the replacement airbag. I live in one of the hottest, most humid climate changing areas in the USA. Summers of humid 105 f. Degree, and winters down to 20 degrees. My Mustang is a convertible and receives 100% of the humidity when the top is down.

Takata recall I received multiple notices of this recall for passenger side airbags. I contact all american Ford in hackensack and Ford corporate.

Now I received notice of the takata bankruptcy. Why can't I get my Ford Mustang repaired by Ford or replace the airbag with safer ones?.

Takata recall - I, along with others, am still waiting for the passenger side airbag to be replaced by Ford. It has now been over a year since the recall, and the part is unavailable. The person at vista Ford told me I shouldn't drive the car with anyone in the passenger seat -- I should put them in the back, which is barely comfortable for a dog. Then I called Ford motor CO, whose rep told me that Ford and the NHTSA say the car is perfectly safe to drive while I'm waiting for the recall. Isn't Ford liable and do you really endorse continuing to drive passengers in the front? nobody knows when the part will be available -- I'm extremely concerned.

Takata recall. I received my notice of recall for driver side air bag dated may 21, 2015. I called my local dealer and was told that I would be informed when a replacement was available and to just wait until then to call again. As of April 11 2016 no word from Ford or my local dealer. When I call them I am told " we don't know when" then say maybe in 3 to six months. They also have said that as my car is a florida car it is a priority. 11 months gone and 3 to 6 months to go for a priority car. Your site says that many bags have been replaced, but I can't even get a good time table. How can I get the truth from Ford motor company?.

Takata recall. On 3/25/15 I had my driver side air bag replaced per Ford recall 14b09. Then in July of 2015 I got a letter from Ford stating that the airbag had to be replaced again and was still under recall. The number of this recall is 15s21 and Ford would send me a letter when parts were available. In February of 2016 I still had not heard from Ford so I called my dealer and they told me parts were not available. At the same time I emailed Ford and the reply was to wait for parts to be available. Finally on 5/25/16 I emailed Ford again trying to find out if parts were available and I was told that I would be notified in the "very near future" about the availability of parts. As of today 6/30/16 I still have not heard about the parts being available. It has been since March 2015 that I have been driving around with a possible defective airbag in my Mustang. Apparently the replacement airbag they put in on 3/25/15 may also be defective per Ford. My wife and I drive this vehicle and I don't know if it is safe to drive. I actually asked Ford if the vehicle was safe to drive and they did not really answer that question. I live in an area of high heat in phoenix and I am wondering if our lives are in danger driving this vehicle. Apparently my vehicle is on the priority two list for getting the airbag replaced whatever that means. Is there any way to speed this up? thank you.
